Weekend di inaugurazione
Fan village
Alongside the AIL Arena Self Tour, the Inauguration Weekend also features a Fan Village outside the Arena, designed as a space for gathering, celebration and entertainment, allowing visitors to experience the atmosphere of the two days even beyond the visit to the Arena.
The Fan Village is open to everyone on Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 May 2026, from 08:30 to 20:00. Admission is free and no registration is required. The area includes the future Via Stadio and Campo C of the Cornaredo sports centre, with both covered and uncovered spaces designed to welcome fans, families, enthusiasts and curious visitors throughout the weekend.
What you will find in the Fan Village
During the weekend, the Fan Village offers activities for all ages, entertainment moments and Club-related content, with the partners also playing a central role. In the external area of the AIL Arena, visitors will find several stands and initiatives designed to involve the public, including the Erreà stand with an inflatable football pitch and activities proposed by Lugano’s Plan ₿ and UBS, with games and moments dedicated to visitors. And much more.
Among the activities available:
Food & beverage
Several food & beverage points are available inside the Fan Village. The offer is managed by Hotel Gabbani SA, official Food & Beverage partner of the AIL Arena.
Products and offers linked to the Club’s partners are also available, including Chicco d’Oro for coffee, Gruppo Feldschlösschen for beverages and Carlo Tamborini SA for wines.
Presenting Partner Gruppo Corriere del Ticino
During the weekend, Gruppo Corriere del Ticino, Presenting Partner of the two days, is present in the Fan Village with the Radio 3i mobile studio, helping to tell the story and atmosphere of the event directly from the external area of the AIL Arena.
In addition, in the build-up to the Inauguration Weekend, on Friday 29 May, Teleticino also accompanies the opening of the new Arena with a special production of the sports programme “Fuorigioco”, broadcast live from the AIL Arena. A first moment of storytelling and anticipation ahead of the official opening of the doors to the public, scheduled for Saturday 30 May.
